By way of update to all you avid listeners.
There is an episode in the can still awaiting edit by Pat - but I think you'll probably have that very soon. (Teaser note: the working title for this episode is "Drunk")
Separate to that though you can expect a flurry of episodes to get us back up to date by the end of July. Pat's commitments die down and we will actually have recording time available again.
We currently sit three episodes behind in terms of recording so there may even be a mythical double header record to get things back up to date..oh god. Apologies for the sporadic nature of late, but suffice to say our penance will be done through a compressed schedule to get things back on track.
Superfan Ruchesko also sent through a new update for those of you interested:
Regretably, I've gotta tell you that I am not in fact a Japanese expat. I'm actually as British as the average New Zealand football coach. Incidentally, turns out I'm based not a million miles away from Paul Ifill's old digs. Also, tell Patrick of course Phoenix City's more uplifting than the Coast pod! Granted, the first episode I caught was their post-mortem of the April 14th massacre, but if they have a sense of humour over there, I couldn't find it. As for my trawl through your archive, can't say I set out intending to do the lot, but once you find gems like the Borneo Pusamania vs Semen Padang incident, it gets hard to stop. Finally, full disclosure: I've also gone through what few bits of In The Zone Dale left up. All-round inferior product, but sounds like I missed something special with Smithy.
You can find him here if you are keen to chat.
